LePage is committed to lowering the cost of government. PRINTED IN MAINE STOPPING DOMESTIC VIOLENCE: We need to protect Maine's women, children and all affected by violence.

He provided parents' choices with Charter Schools, took school performance reviews out of the file cabinet so parents can see them, and promoted job training skills so every child can succeed. RECOGNIZING OUR MILITARY & VETERANS: From laying wreaths at Arlington National Cemetery, hosting dinners with families or traveling our state for events; the Governor and First Lady Ann LePage are there for our heroes. Governor Le Page helped returning military by waiving drivers license fees, provided funding for transportation, promoted Gold Star license plates, and pushed new veterans job initiatives. Recognizing our veterans is a 24/7 commitment. PROTECTING OUR LIBERTIES AND 2ND AMENDMENT RIGHTS: Governor Le Page is committed to protecting our Liberty. He has stopped – and will continue to resist – any efforts to restrict our 2nd Amendment rights and liberties. SAFEGUARDING MAINE'S ENVIRONMENT: State agencies are enforcing the rules. In fact, Governor LePage issued the second largest environmental penalty in Maine's history, placing a nearly one-million-dollar penalty on a major oil company for spill pollution. FIXING OUR ROADS AND BRIDGES FOR SAFETY: With the Governor's leadership the state added $104 million to improve roads and bridges without borrowing and reduced the average cost per improved mile by 30%. Now with bonding, the Governor is implementing a major $2.2 Billion, 3-year plan for improved transportation. Vote November 4th to Keep Paul LePage Working for Maine!
